I am interested in a Mortgage for my investment properties
Hello,
I am in need of some direction. I am a tax lien investor and recently a judge entered foreclosing rights of redemption in my favor, so i'm getting ready to settle all the arrears so that i may gain access to the properties. Looking ahead to rehab work, and after doing my research for mortgage financing etc, amongst many requirements, but one in particular, i was told in order for me to get a mortgage for my investment properties, which will belong to my LLC, i would have to have the deeds in my possession to the properties seasoned for at least 6 months before being considered. Any advice to bypass this requirement of seasoning? It's been a long season with courts and fee's already, if i have to wait, then so be it, however if i don't have to, then we all know the answer to that. I would like to pay off the arrears and get some favorable rates from the banks and get to rehabbing the properties right away!

As far as conventional financing, there isn't any way to get around the at least 6 month seasoning (some require 12 months) that I know of. If I was in your situation, since you say there are repairs to be made anyway, I would say it's not a bad option to get a hard/private money loan to pay off the arrears and do the repairs, then do a cash out refi in 6-12 months to pull your money back out.
